Would it not be classed as a forfeit? 3 points to all other teams.
No, it can't work like that because it gives a massive unfair advantage for third place qualification, which still stands if Russia are thrown out.

We have the spine of an insect and Wales will be going for our throats
Actually, nobody knows yet.

Whatever happens it's not likely to be much of a punishment for Russia...they look unlikely to qualify anyway. However imagine if England fail to qualify out of what is effectively a group of three.Actually, nobody knows yet.

This actually means that England can lose to Wales tommorow and probably still qualify by beating Slovakia in the last game as 4 points would pretty much gaurantee a best 3rd place finish, so I don't see how it cranks up the pressure for tomorrow. We effectively have two shots at getting through to the next round. Win either game and it will be enough.

3rd place = meeting 1st from another group. I suppose it's just a round earlier than the anticipated QF exit!

I wasn't too fussed about England fared until the Russians ruined it all, now I want us to batter Johnny Foreigner (on the pitch of course).We will get at least another 4 points IMO
